Choose the Best!!

Seriously the absolute only lawyer you should even consider if you find yourself in these circumstances. He knows what he's doing, he's confident, straightforward and honest. He never promised me anything he knew he couldn't deliver. Losing my license wasn't an option for me since that is how I make ...my living. I just did exactly as he told me to do, in a timely manner and I kept my license. My case came out better than I ever even hoped for. His fees are very reasonable and you're going to pay that or more any place else, might as well choose the best!! I honestly cannot say enough good things about Zach Smith, I'm extremely grateful to him!!

Best in Tulsa by far

If you find yourself in the unfortunate situation of dealing with a DUI charge, do not throw in the towel and hire just anyone to defend you and do yourself a huge favor by calling Zack Smith! The whole process can seem very frightening and daunting, but Zack put my mind to ease and made everything... a complete breeze. After meeting with several attorneys in the Tulsa area, I found Zack to be the most genuine and knowledgeable. From the first meeting with him I could tell he knew exactly what he was talking about as he described to me my legal position and all of the possible outcomes, options and procedures. You can really tell he cares about his clients and understands that good people can make bad decisions that can put them in unfortunate situations that should not affect the rest of their lives, and he really wants to get you the treatment that you deserve. He even won my Department of Transportation hearing, which I hear is usually next to impossible! His advice to me was to do everything he tells me to do, when he tells me to do it and everything will be fine... and it completely was! I did not get my license suspended at all and did not even get any community service or anything! Soon it will be like it never even happened. His attorney fees were far and away the best out of everyone else I talked with... by a LOT. If you ever find yourself in need of a DUI attorney, do yourself a HUGE favor and call Zack Smith... you will be very thankful that you did and this whole thing will soon be a distant memory.

Zack was very courteous and professional but defiantly took care of business!! He got my mans second page stricken and instead of a prison sentence.. He got a five year suspended!! Thanks Zack!

DUI

Zach did an excellent job handling my case. He did everything he said he would. Zach won a case he filed against DPS and as a result I was able to keep my license. No suspension and no interlock device. I highly recommend Zach and his team.

Peace of mind

Zach went above and beyond expectations while handling my case. It was very reassuring knowing he was on my side. At a time when you're stressed out and a bit unsure of what to expect you can count on Zach to shoot you straight and fight for the best possible outcome. You'll have one less thing to wo...rry about with him in your corner working your case. He's very professional; nobody knows the system better. If you're looking for peace of mind knowing you have the right attorney on your case hire Zach he'll treat you right. He couldn't have handled my case any better, I'm thankful for that. I know several people who he's fought for and all say he's helped them out one way or another. He's a stand up guy. I recommend him to anyone. Thanks.
